What I did on my summer vacation

I had planned on leaving tomorrow for 4 days in the woods in Canada with a bunch of strangers. After reading their email list archives and getting some odd emails from some participants, I decided that I didn’t really want to go.  I will miss the opportunity to hang out at a lake in the woods but the other, not so much.  *sigh*  Must get out of town at some point.

Last week was a bit odd for me.  As expected but odd to be in it.  Lots of down time, napping, not getting much done.  With the exception of the slight twitterpation of potential love interest, it was a bit off.  Continue reading →

Would it be as much fun, if you never stopped laughing? If there were never any clouds? If you were never challenged? If you were never alone? If you never heard the whole truth when it hurt? If you always knew what would happen, what to do, and where to go?

I’m totally willing to risk it all for the greater possibilities. And nothing is ever a mistake. So what if I get a bit of heartache. I’d rather have loved than lost than never had loved at all.  It ain’t as trite as one might suppose. I am certainly not here to live in fear.
